Opening links in a new tab

• To enable the use of the target="_blank" feature to open links in a new browser tab, do the following:
  • On the page, click the + sign and then Other Macro.
  • Search for html and add the HTML macro to the page. It will appear at the top of the page.
    
  • Paste the following code into the HTML box. This will cause all links (internal and external) to open in a new tab.
    

    <script>
    jQuery(document).ready(function() {
        jQuery(".wiki-content a").attr("target", "_blank");
    });
    </script>

    
    
  • If you just want external links to open in a new tab, use this code instead:
    

    <script>
    jQuery(document).ready(function() {
        jQuery(".external-link").attr("target", "_blank");
    });
    </script>

  • Save the page and test to confirm.
